Trade schools, rs institutions where the
industrial arts are specially taught are
called, are rapidly gaming a foolhold H.
this country. The apprentice system
never can he revived in this country to
such an extent as will enable the hun
dreds of young men who desire to learn q
trade to do SO. The master workmen in
the various trades nave neither the time
nor disposition to teach young men the
secrets of their business. Even if they
had, the rules of the various unions limit
the number of apprentices. and an APP
premiership is about as hard to obtain Us
"A scholarship in the army or naval schools
of the government. The establishment
Of trade schools il, therefore, a practical
educational movement that meets with
encouragement from the associations of
master workmen in the various trades.
These schools, if they do MOI turn out
thoroughly skilled workmen, do furnish
young men with a ground work which,
with practical experience, will very
quickly convert them into skilled artisans.
This fact is shown by the experience
of the hundreds of young men, be-
tween II and 21 years of age, who
have laid the foundation of their
knowledge of their trades in New York
schools during the past six years.
The instructors there are skilled workmen.
and the personal attention by them to
each individual student results in the
very rapid requirement by the scholar of
the necessary rudiments of his trade. In
a busy workshop such personal and con
slant attention and the immediate cor.
rection of false methods or errors of
judgment are not possible. 1t is no
wonder. then, that young men seeking
TO learn IA trade make such very rapid
and seemingly phenomenal progress as
they do at the New York trade schools.
Their faults are corrected Immediately on
being made, and they are taught how to
correct and avoid them.-New York

the law came under your observation.
Guilford Miller settled upon lands after
ward selected and claimed by the North
ern Pacific Railway company to be within
the withdrawal for indemnity purposes.
Some doubt arising as to the legality OF
that withdrawal, the case was referred by
this department to the attorney general
for his opinion. That officer held that
the withdrawal was legal, and that during
its existence Miller could acquire
no right or title to the tract
claimed by him and on which he lived.
Whilst recognizing the correctness
of the law, you saw the injustice of the
case SO far as the individual settler was
affected and that hundreds Of others who
similarly situated also might and would be
affected, and you directed that such
